Hardcore troubadour 12,618 Posted February 14, 2020 My lifetime, and I’m going by the position they played. Can’t make Griffey a LF for example. DH included. 1B- Pujols 2B- Alomar. Not a Joe Morgan guy. Think he and much of the big red machine is overrated SS- Jeter. No peer 3B- Schmidt. Hardest position to pick. Brett and Chipper are right there and personal favorites. LF - Manny Ramirez. Another hard spot to pick. Ricky Henderson was the runner up CF - Griffey. No brainer, Trout is gaining RF- Vlad Guerrero. Ichiro is right there C- Johnny Bench. Easiest spot to pick DH- Big Papi. Wanted to pick R Jackson but Papi was just as much an October force, if not more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Like I explained in my pitching post, I don’t include the over the top, no doubt about it guys that totally abused roids. You’ll notice Manny and Papi are still on the list. Guys like McGuire and Sosa and Bonds not. My list. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I did want to say that I have been on record as saying that Rickey Henderson is the best baseball player of all time, when compared to others at his position (which in my case is leadoff hitter, not defensive outfielder). But if you include Bonds, eesh that is tough. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
